Description

A kind of silicon carbide crystal growing device
Technical field
The utility model belongs to novel material processing technique field, is specifically related to a kind of novel silicon carbide crystal growing apparatus.
Background technology
Silicon carbide (SiC) is the third generation half semiconductor material with wide forbidden band after silicon, germanium, gallium arsenide etc., and it has obvious advantage in energy gap, thermal conductivity, critical breakdown strength, saturated electrons drift speed etc.The energy gap of 4H-SiC and 6H-SiC is respectively 3.26eV and 3.08eV, and the forbidden band of 3C-SiC is the narrowest, and its energy gap is also at about 2.39eV.The energy gap of SiC is 2-3 times of Si, and thermal conductivity is 2.6-3.3 times of Si, and critical breakdown strength is 7-13 times of Si, and saturated electrons drift speed is 2-2.7 times of Si.Use wide-band gap material significantly can improve the working temperature of device, adopt the power device of SiC substrate, maximum operating temperature is likely more than 600 DEG C.Higher critical breakdown strength can make the volume of minimizing device, saves a large amount of heat abstractors while therefore can making device miniaturization, reduces the consumption of the energy.Higher saturated electrons drift speed can improve the switching speed of device, reduces switching loss.So compared with Si, SiC is more suitable for for the manufacture of high temperature, high frequency, powerful power device.
Current commercial SiC substrate is obtained by physical vapor transport (PVT) method, and containing a large amount of defects in substrate, especially micropipe defects, what can cause device punctures inefficacy.Along with high-power and the high frequency of power device, the demand of producing high quality SiC substrate is more and more urgent.Solution method is in nearly equilibrium state because of its process of growth, is a kind of Perfected process of SiC crystal of growing high quality, particularly can eliminate the micropipe defects being difficult in PVT method process of growth avoid.In solution growth SiC crystal process, crystal growth occurs in growth chamber, comprises several parts such as open crucible, solution, seed shaft and seed crystal in growth chamber.Crucible is high purity graphite crucible, by induction heating the high purity polycrystalline silicon fusing in crucible, forms the silicon of melting.Carbon source is provided the corrosion of plumbago crucible by the silicon of melting, and then form the solution of Si-C system.By adjusting the relative position of crucible and ruhmkorff coil, make in solution, to form stable temperature and thermograde.Seed crystal is pasted onto on seed rod, and the supersaturation district immersing solution during growth grows.
Seed crystal and seed shaft are pasted together by usual use carbon binder, by sintering process, carbon binder are solidified, form stable connection.But in this process, due to reasons such as the uneven or seed shaft surface irregularities that carbon binder is smeared, there is the space of part in the meeting between seed crystal and seed shaft, due to the difference of the thermal conductivity of air and graphite, seed crystal is different with the temperature in other regions from the gap of seed shaft, and this can cause the generation of crystal defect such as many types of symbiosis in process of growth, or due to the existence of stress, cause defects count in the crystal grown to increase, time serious, even cause the cracking of crystal.Therefore this is the problem that existing solution growth SiC crystal is difficult to avoid.
Summary of the invention
For the weak point that existing solution growth SiC crystal exists, of the present utility modelly inventor provide a kind of novel silicon carbide crystal growing apparatus, this device comprises growth chamber, insulated tank is provided with in cavity, insulated tank arranged outside has ruhmkorff coil, crucible is provided with in insulated tank, seed shaft lift rotating equipment is provided with on the upside of growth chamber, this device lower end is provided with the seed shaft stretched in crucible, seed shaft lower end is connected with seed crystal bracket, adopt the growing apparatus of this structure in whole process of growth, any tackiness agent is not used to fix seed crystal, only carry seed crystal by seed crystal bracket.Seed crystal is in crystal growing process, owing to there is space between seed crystal and seed crystal bracket, under the effect of solution flowing, seed crystal is not by the constraint of seed crystal bracket, effectively can avoid like this producing stress in crystal, avoid causing local stress in crystal to cause greatly the situations such as cracking, defect are many when solidifying uneven when using tackiness agent.By using seed crystal bracket, high-quality SiC crystal can be grown.
Concrete technical scheme of the present utility model is:
